Make your wife happy and make yourself happy

This was a wonderful experience for both my wife and myself. She was genuinely surprised by the beauty of the setting, and also the wonderful lay out on that beautiful afternoon. If you were a man or a woman and want to maintain the romanticism in your marriage, this is the way to go. It truly is a great romantic gesture, and I would not hesitate to do it again. If you were in Santa Cruz area, you would be a fool not to do this and we came up on vacation from Carmel so I could surprise my wife just do it

Great experience. Beautiful view. The set up was very well planned and nicely executed. Alexandra even brought some extra blankets to keep us warm on a very windy afternoon.

Fantastic experience that my wife thoroughly enjoyed! Made for a great surprise she won't soon forget. Premium price but everything was very nice and high quality as well as locally sourced which you'd expect for something like this. A great way to spoil someone you love!

An enjoyable experience with tasty sandwiches, cakes and fruits. It was a bit windy on the day; but Alejandra did her best to get everything together and make the time spent at the coast fun and relaxing.
